Volunteer programs for the under-18s

[xuchong]

I'm looking for a volunteer position in exchange for accomodations and food. I feel limited because I am not yet 18 and I do not hold a degree or certification. I am about to enter college this fall and have a free summer.

I know these programs must exist; a family friend suggested one he knew of however they could not take me. Does anyone know of anything I should look into?

Thanks in advance

I think it's going to be very hard until you're 18, I'm afraid.

I am finding it difficult.

The one that was recommended to me was aidsummer.org. I don't know how to edit posts.
